🎯 Tips & Tricks
Since it works with all vehicles, test the tuning options on a spare vehicle first to see how they affect handling.
If you're playing on a server, make sure the mod is installed on both client and server to avoid issues.
Check the Gameplay Options menu after installing — the new tuning options are there, not in the mod's config files.

⚠️ Common Mistakes
- Installing multiple mods that modify the same files without checking compatibility
👍 Pros
- Community favorite with 1,081 endorsements and 52k downloads — clearly a lot of players are using this.
- Works with ALL vehicles, so you don't have to worry about compatibility with specific vehicle mods.
- Adds a bunch of useful features like camping, harvesting, and cargo storage — not just a simple stat tweak.
👎 Cons
- Last updated in September 2024 — might not be compatible with the latest game patches if you're on a newer version.

- The mod changes weapon damage, which could make the game too easy if you're not careful — might unbalance your playthrough.
